Cannot connect to reliable source error...

I've seriously tried every idea in this forum. I've been trying to download this for 3 days now.
My OS is Windows XP
My browser is Internet Explorer 8
I have AVG antivirus
I have turned everything off (including firewalls), I don't have a new version installed( I used to, then it got deleted), I've done the disk clean up, defragmented, and anything else I could do. It will not download.
CAN ANYBODY HELP ME????
(the direct links to flash player in the forum don't work either. I tried.)

What do you mean by "don't work" - do you get an error message, or what exactly happens?
I can download all installers from the links in

P.S. make sure you download the 32-bit installers for your XP system.

Flash Player will not download past 47% - "cannot contact reliable source" error everytime

So just as the title states - I uninstalled Flash on my computer because it was giving me trouble. Now, everytime I try to redownload Flash for Firefox - it will not go past 47% download and the "Cannot contact reliable source" error comes up every single time. I'm on Windows 7 64 bit and I have Charter Security Suite for Antivirus if that helps.
Never had this problem before when I downloaded Flash and now this is just plain stupid.

F-Secure said that Adobe needs to submit the URL and IP addresses to them for removal from this blacklist.
That's a two way street. My brother used TrendMicro for about four years before he got rid of it. TrendMicro's stance was "We build our product and update it. The rest of the world can keep up with what we do." When he was no longer able to update QuickBooks because of TrendMicro, he uninstalled it. They told him it was Intuit's responsibility to update their (TrendMicro's) IP database. That kind of arrogance is why Apple has surpassed Microsoft in recent years as the #1 tech company in the world. People won't keep using something that continually doesn't work, like Windows Vista and now 8 - Okay, 8 is more compatible than Vista was but it's far less user friendly UNLESS you're on a touch screen tablet, which means they NEVER should have developed it for desktop and laptop use.
I worked for Intuit from 2003 to 2006 and dev people in Mountian View ran me through the update process for their websites. There are protocols that remain constant that should NOT blacklist a new update from a trusted primary, secondary and tertiary domain that's properly written. It's what prevents hack sites (like... just an example: "xxx.porn.adobe.com") from getting onto a whitelist. Any GOOD antivirus company will have databases that maintain that primary ptrotocol. If they don't they're doing things bassackwards.
I spent six years testing all kinds of software for compatibility, including several antivirus apps (but not F-secure). After all that, I made a rule for myself:
ANY software that interferes with other software, especially software that I use frequently, is gone. If there's a more compatible replacement, I'll use it instead... if not, I'll learn to get by without it.
I do graphic and web design by trade, and anything that hinders productivity is a liability. Be it photoshop plugins that crash the app, A/V that screws with FTP, or whatever.

I cannot connect to FaceTime, encountered "error processing registration, please try later" message on my Macbook Air, but I don't have this problem on my IMac. Can anyone help?

I have the same problem on my iMac. My facetime has been working, but now I'm getting the same error as You. I've been through the following:
The stuff that Linc Davis suggested, new profile on iMac, moved iMac into DMZ zone with no firewall rules, tested with other Apple-ID, checked hosts file, checked different timezone settings, tried to connect to 2 mobile APs (with diferent providors), changed DNS servers (ISP's DNS + Google DNS + Open DNS) - Nothing helped. Also talked to Apple Support, since i have Apple Care, but the seem to be a bit clueless also Well I've mailed them the results of my different tests, so lets see what they come up with - Unfortunately I'm sure it will be the same suggestion as all the major PC manufactures suggests, reinstall and test - RIGHT !!!!!!
If I get solution, I'll post it here.

Cannot connect to activation server error when I tried to re-authorize my computer

I had problem copying library books to my kobo reader. It was OK back in Dec.
So I tried to erase authorization and re-authorize my computer to try as a fresh start.
I am getting a "cannot connect to activation server error". I have no problem connecting to the internet on all other sites that I am accessing.

I don't know if this will help, but I was having trouble today activating another Adobe product as well. Turns out the problem was other software on my computer - a program called "Net Nanny" that filters content and supposedly keeps malware and other stuff out. Maybe you have that or something similar, like a McAfee or Norton? Temporarily disabling the software fixed my problem. Good luck!

Can't install adobe flash player, error message says cannot contact a reliable source

Everytime I try to download it, it gets to about 7% and then the error message says cannot contact reliable source. I used the adobe uninstaller to uninstall the previous versions, but no luck. I've tried locating hidden files but couldn't find any. Any suggestions?

Did you repair permissions and restarted your computer prior to re-installing?
Where did you download the flash player from?

Install_flashplayer11x64ax_gtbd_aih.exe "cannot contact reliable source" error

I am using Win 7 64 bit. I am using a Dell precision T7500. Trend anti-virus.
I can download other programs from other sites at a normal rate. When I try to download the installer on both IE9 and Firefox my xfer rate drops to 24kbs or lower. Right now trying to download the subject exe I am at 1.65 kb/s. I run the program and it asks me to update auto, don't or ask to update. Then it tries to download adobe flash 11. I have multiple adobe products and every single one of them takes milleniums to update (adobe Master collection CS5.5). Trying to run this install application gives me the "cannot contact reliable source". downloading a later version of adobe drops me to under 25 kb/s as well. Been working on this issue for months now and my customer is getting frustrated and so am I. Any thoughts?

You can download the executable installers for your system from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#Ins tall_in_a_firewall_proxy_server_environment

HT1933 I get a "Cannot connect to iTunes store" error. How else can I report a purchase?

Hello there!
I just received a receipt for a game I have purchased for two friends (two distinct account without cards attached, so the game was purchased twice as a gift) but I have been charged for three copies and I want to report this problem.
So, naturally, I clicked on the Report... link under any of the purchases and I get the message:
"Cannot connect to iTunes store".
I don't want to let this get away. If there is no way of getting my money back, I want to have the game on my account as well!

Change your Date & Time settings from Automatic to OFF and then change the date a good month ahead. Open the app store from Passbook. Should load perfectly. Once you get in, change the date and time back to auto.

Processing data base failed: Cannot connect to data source

Hi,
I have deployed my SSAS project to an Analysis services database on a SQL 2014 server instance using the "Development" build configration in Visual Studio. In order to avoid users accessing the development instance of the cube, I've created
an additional "Release" build configuration and deployed my project to a different database on the same server. I've also created a production copy of the data source and changed the data source configuration of the production cube to point to this
one.
I've provided the same domain service account on the "Impersonation information" tab of the data source for both the development as well as the production instance of the cube. This account has also been granted identical permissions for both data
sources. While everything works fine with the development database, processing the production database fails with an error message saying that it cannot connect to its respective data source.
I'm using VS Ultimate 2013.4, SSDT 12.0.50318.0. Any hints pointing me in the right direction are appreciated.
Many thanks
Andreas

Hi Andreas,
According to your description, your production cube can't connect to data source when processing. Right?
In this scenario, if both cube data sources are pointing to same source databases, both connection should work proerly. Since you created a copy of data source for your production cube, please make sure your type the right server name and test connection
in your project. If you can connect successfully, I suggest you only keep this data source for your production project. If the issue still persists, I suggest you import the development database into a new project and save this one as your production database.
If you still have any question, plesse provide some more information and share some screenshots.
Best Regards,

Itunes cannot connect to iTunes store error 306

Hi, I think I originally posted this on the wrong forum. So I will repost and hope for the best.
Up until recently I used to connect to the internet via airport and everything worked fine. I could connect to iTunes store no problem.
The connection was all set up by the local phone company and somehow they connected the iMac to airport via a modem.
I know that this appears to defeat the point of airport but it worked fine.
I had connection problems with the modem (it was old and needed replaced) that was attached to the airport and iMac. I arranged for the telephone company to come and replace the modem. However, although they replaced the modem and the internet connection is fine.
What they did not do was to reconnect the Airport device and now I cannot connect with iTunes store. Now instead of connecting to the internet via the Airport connection I now connect via Ethernet
The error message I get is
"iTunes could not connect to the iTunes store. An unknown error occured (306).
Make sure your network connection is active and try again."
I think that if someone could advise how I stop trying to connect to the iTunes store via Airport but via an Ethernet connection
iMac intel Mac OS X (10.6.6)

iTunes Store loads partially or returns "Error 306" or "Error 10054"
Proxies, parental control settings and software, security or filtering software, or a bad iTunes Store cache can cause this.

Cannot connect to iTunes store - error -3212

iTunes is telling me that I cannot connect to their store or to my account. But I am connected to the internet as writing this support request should prove. The message says 'an unknown error occured - error (-3212)' This error only happened yesterday and is happening with both of my iPods. I have rebooted my laptop. When I did the iTunes Diognostic Check it says 'secure link to iTunes Store failed' but the others passed ('Network interfaces & Internet connection verified'). My computer is only 1 yr old (Asus Model U47A - i7, 8gb ram) and one iPod is only a week old and another is older. I hope there is a simple solution as I am not very tech savvy. I have checked online and have not seen this error anywhere.

I 'played' around with my Norton 360, did a scan, etc, and whatever I did something seems to have done the trick. It is solved and I am able to connect to iTunes store. I wish you luck with your -50 error.

Cannot connect Ipod to Itunes, error messages

I just unpacked my brand new Ipod Touch 16 Gb, in version 1.1.2.
I have the most serious problems to get a reliable connection to ITunes. In 1 case out of 20 it works, but usually I get a couple of error messages:
a) itunes could not connect to Iphone because error while reading from device
b) Itunes could not connect to Iphone because unknown error 0xE8000001.
after 2 hours I managed to upgrade to version 1.1.3., managed to sync a few songs, but now connections are impossible, with above error messages.
Please help.
Patrick

have you tried unplugging all usb devices, including any usb hubs? Plug ipod directly into usb 2 port and try again.

Cannot connect to service provider. error (2)

What I am facing right now, it always prompt me this error message
"Cannot connect to the provider. Make sure it is running in the specified host/port. Error(2)."
it is in version 9.3.1.2. this error i got when i try to connect any application through connection manager.
kindly help me regarding this.

If you are not the admin of the system then you will need to contact them to make sure APS is running, If you are the admin and APS is installed on windows then there will be a service named something like Hyperion Provider Services, you will need to start this service.
Cheers

Cannot connect to You Tube / Error playing movie

I am connected to Wi-Fi (verified by checking out Safari) but I keep getting an error message when I try to connect to You Tube.
It says "Cannot connect to You Tube". When that message goes away and I try playing a clip it says " Error playing movie"
Anyone experience this? How to fix it? I have already restarted the phone.

yeah, i had this problem. resetting the phone to factory settings fixed the problem. just restore the phone through itunes (be sure to back up anything that might get lost in the full restore). youtube worked fine for me after this.

ITunes cannot connect with this iPad Error/iOS 5 problem

It appears that ever since upgrading to iOS 5 and opting to sync my first gen iPad wirelessly, I have been receiving an error message each morning stating "iTunes cannot connect with this iPad..."
The wireless sync capability works fine, I plug my iPad into the wall when I come home, and it starts pushing and pulling all the new apps that I've downloaded in the day.
It appears that iTunes is will regularly try to connect with the iPad while it is charging. At some point during the evenings, either my iPad will be asleep or my iMac will be asleep. I think this is where the connection problem is arising.
Does anyone know how to change iTunes' frequency of wireless sync to a device that it is wirelessly connected to? Ideally, I'd like it to only sync wirelessly once when I plug the iPad into the wall.
